Nutritionist note
Plain yogurt adds creaminess and calcium, while beetroot powder makes the dip bright without artificial color.
Parent tip
Use unsweetened plain yogurt and avoid added salt for babies.
Parent note: introduce new foods one at a time, adjust texture for your baby’s readiness, and check with your pediatrician for allergies, medical conditions, or feeding concerns.
